VIEWING ATTACHED REPORT

---

Greetings Command,

This is a standard report in relation to this morning's patrol. I patrolled the California, New York and Texas system without engagement. During the California leg I was hailed by a USI Transport [*USI*]Glendale who requested escort to the Texas system due to some pirate activity they had encountered. I agreed to protect the craft during this leg of its journey and we set off via the tradelanes towards the Planet Houston. Upon arriving at our destination the commander of the vessel attempted to pay me for my time, which I had previously refused as the government pay me to protect Liberty citizens. Nevertheless I recieved a transfer of 1.5 million credits via neural net.

At this point the Transport's escort (and perhaps supervisor) Jesse Ryder arrived near Planet Houston. After a brief conversation I returned the credits that had been transferred to me via neural net to Ryder. All in all it was a pleasant patrol with no hostile activity. It did feel like a return to a less... agressive time than it has been for the past few weeks. Within my report I attach guncam footage and communications logs which will show that I both recieved and returned credits to USI incase this information is required by the accounting office.

With Regards,

Lieutenant Commander Lucius Hopkins, 5th Fleet
